                G                        C
                Up all night I could not sleep 
                    G                        C
                The whiskey that I drank was cheap 
                     G                          C                  D
                With shakin' hands I wait and I lit up my last cigarette 
                         G                      C
                Well the sun came the night had fled 
                    G                        C
                And sleepy-eyed I reached my bed 
                  G                      C                     G     C  G
                I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm

                South city midnight lady 
                    Bb              C
                I'm much obliged indeed
                    C                    Bm        Am          G    C  G
                You sure have saved this man who's soul was in need 
                C                      Bm
                I thought there was no reason 
                    Bb                 C
                For all these things I do 
                        C                 Bm     Am              G
                But the smile that I said I've returned I'm with you
 
 
                G                             C
                When day has left the night behind 
                    G                      C
                And shadows roll across my mind 
                  G                      C                        D
                I sometimes find myself alone and out walking the street 
                        G                         C
                Yes and when I'm feelin' down and blue 
                     G                    C
                Then all I do is think of you 
                    G                       C            G    C  G
                And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
